Have one that I haven’t had time to fire yet, I will say it’s a drop in fit in my Russian tt33. Mag fits well, dummy 9mm rounds cycle, live factory ammo passes the plunk test. A friend has one in a chicom tt33 that I’ve fired, he’s not had any issues as far as I know.
I got the one from lever arms and put it in my chinese tokarev. It works great with no issue. You can use the x25 magazines with 9mm and it also works great. I sold the 9mm only mags cause i do not feel like i need them. I just swap barrel and ammo and enjoy. I do feel a little silly though since 9mm cost alot more than x25 currently.
For accuracy, its a handgun made for war. Its good enough.

My Polish TT33 was unissued and will shoot .25 sized 15 yard groups off the bags. I load 13gr of Win 296 /Starline brass and either a 86grSP or 90gr HP. For ease of ammo and not caring about lost brass I thought a 9mm option would be practical. At least ammo will be available NATO or Com. Block. Thanx for the replies.

Any where to order a conversion kit ? I have two type 54s and running 9mm through one sounds practical

Lever Arms, you get a barrel and two mags.

I honestly don't know what your point is. You don't need a 9mm mag.
I have one of those kits brought in by Lever Arms.
It feeds, chambers and shoots just fine from both the original mags and the two mags included in the kit.
Mine just fit right in and worked, without any fiddling at all.
TT33 can vary a few thou one way or another internally, depending on where they're made.
Mine is Russian, dated 1946 and unissued.

I'll probably get the kit to try it, but what's the benefit of the conversion?
The price of 7.62x25 is slightly lower than 9mm (or a lot lower if you want to get surplus) and it isn't in short supply. I can't imagine it'll make the Tokarev that much more accurate either.

For me the benefit is not having to clean it if I only want to shoot a couple mags, I’ll shoot surplus x25 when I want to shoot volume and do a full clean. Otherwise I’ll shoot 9mm if I want to shoot a box or two, also I have not bothered to collect brass or projectiles or dies for x25. Have lots of components for 9mm, makes sense to have the ability to shoot both cartridges.
